Lambrusco Otello – Cantina Ceci

A Lambrusco from Parma with bold, contemporary character

Lambrusco Otello is one of the most recognisable and distinctive expressions of Parma’s Lambrusco. A wine that combines deep roots in its homeland with a modern outlook, made for the table and to partner with food. At Parma & Pasta we serve Lambrusco Otello produced by Cantina Ceci, a long-established winery in the Parma area, which has given Lambrusco a contemporary voice without betraying its soul.

Lambrusco in Parma’s food culture

In Emilia, and especially around Parma, Lambrusco has never been a wine “to be explained”, but one to be drunk at the table. It is a convivial wine, made to accompany flavourful food, fresh pasta and cured meats, without overpowering the dish. Lambrusco Otello belongs to this tradition, interpreting it in a clean, recognisable and consistent style.
